You are laying a concrete border around a circular pond ...The pond is 7 meters in diameter and is surrounded by a path 2 metres
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

300 bags of 20 kg  of premixed are required.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

diameter of pond 'd'= 7 m (given)

radius of inner border of pond 'r'= d/2= 7/2 m

The radius of outer circular border 'R'= r+2= 7/2+2= 11/2m

Area of concrete border around the circular pond= area of outer circle- area of inner circle

So, \pi\times R^2-\pi\times r^2= \pi\times (R^2-r^2)

=> 22/7 x ((11/2)²-(7/2)²)

=> 22/7 x (121/4-49/4)

=>\frac{22}{7} \times \frac{72}{4}

=> 56.57 m²

volume of concrete needed= area x height= 56.57 x 0.05= 2.8285 cubic meter

Since 1 cube meter requires 106 x 20 kg bags,

2.8285 cubic meters require bags= 2.8285x106x20 kg

20 kg bags of premixed concrete required= 2.8285x106x20/20

=> 2.8285x106

=> 299.821 or 300 approximately
